We have also developed the TIPA®
method, which is a structured and
objective methodology for the
assessment of the implementation
of ITIL® processes (IT Infrastructure
Library). Adapted to suit any type of
organisation, TIPA® (Tudor's ITSM
Process Assessment) enables
you to acquire an accurate
and reliable view of your IT
Questionnaires
service management practices

the maturity of processes, as
well as detailed analysis of their
strengths and weaknesses – an essential
tool for the initiation of an improvement drive.
